I was so nervous on my wedding day. Between the crowd of people and the not knowing what to expect on my wedding night, I was a wreck. I walked down that isle shaking like a leaf. Flower were falling from my boquet. Now, 20 years later, I am still married to the same man.

It's perfectly normal. My husband and I had actually LIVED together for almost 2 years before we got married and I was still nervous the day of.
Admittedly, I think more of it was over the plans and getting all the pieces in place than the wedding itself. Take a step back and see if it's the person you're marrying that's making you nervous or all the preps that go into it.
Either way, take a little bit of 'you' time everyday and just try to calm down. Lock yourself away in the bathroom and enjoy a good long soak in a bubble bath or something similar. It won't do you any good, nor will it make for a beautiful blushing bride, if you show up at your own wedding overworked, jittery, and on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
When all else fails, smile and BREATHE!
Good Luck and congratz! ^_^

Yes it normal and I felt the same way not too long ago. I just got married on October 10 and i was very nervous in fact right as i was about to say I do I got so nervous that I almost left my husband standing there alone but I love him and think that what we did was the best choice that could have been made. The only thing missing in our life now is a child and we have been working on that. I hope that you have the best marriage that you possibly can

Yes, girl, it sure is! I'm getting married to the most wonderful man in less than a month, and yet there are times that I feel this way. It usually has nothing to do with whether we have had a disagreement or not. For me, it's more that I'm changing what I'm used to and what I've really been enjoying - my singlehood, my freedom, my time alone, etc. But I realize that this change is good. Sometimes I get stressed out while I'm trying to pack my things because it just reminds me of letting go of something I am used to and something that I didn't realize just how much I enjoyed. If you can say that you love your fiancee very much and want to spend the rest of your life with him, even if it means that you are giving up some things, then it is normal and you should get married and enjoy the rest of your lives together!
Congratulations!

Oh, hon ... don't worry, it's perfectly normal. I wondered the same thing myself when I was getting married. I asked myself, what exactly am I worried about? Definitely not my fiance, he's wonderful. I realized I was nervous because it was a really big change in my life, and because I wanted to make sure everything went according to plan, and because I'd have more than 100 people staring at me! But all of that is normal. If, however, you are nervous about the man you're marrying, you might want to talk with someone before you commit to something you're not ready to commit to.

Umm...Very normal. I thought I was going to go crazy the month before my wedding. I was trying to get everything in order and make sure that I had everything I needed and that everyone else knew what they were sopposed to do. The day before my wedding wasn't bad. The excitement of decorating and rehersal took over, until my rehersal was a mess. No one knew what to d owhere to stand or anything. We practiced and practiced until everything was perfect. That night I was a mess. I was so nervous and scared. I was so worried about leaving my dad and sister even though I am their new neighbors. Just take time for yourself everything will go fine. Your bachellorette party will help you to calm down!! My wedding day went perfect. I was so nervous that I didn't even remember my cermony and I had a huge wedding. When I got bavk from my honeymoon and watched the video I was like huh I don't remember that. I regret being so tense and nervous though I think that I would have a better memories if I would have been calm.

Absolutely! And I think it's healthy to...I mean, it's a major thing in life and if you didn't get a little nervous, you probably don't take it as seriously as you should! hehe I was nervous for about the last 3 months before my wedding (just got married in May), but the week of my wedding I was incredibly calm, which threw me for a loop! Good luck!!

Nervous, excited, scared, happy, freaked out a little but in the end I was marrying the man I loved & knew that it was the right step. It's an emontional time you will feel all sorts. Perfectly normal

I was stressed that everything wouldn't happen how I invisioned it. But, I finally let go and said to myself, that no matter how much planning, something goes wrong on your wedding day, and that there is nothing I can do to prevent it. It's a lucky thing I prepared myself, because the alteration place gave my head piece to someone else. I was very calm, and the owner kept thanking me for being so nice and calm. She found it, and I had it in plenty of time for my wedding, she wrote me a nice note and gave me some money back. Just relax and enjoy the day.

It seems that women are always nervous about marriage. Perhaps that is good.
In contrast, I (a man) was happy and confident. It was the happiest moment of my life. I had long looked forward to marriage and family life. I was prepared for the commitment, responsibility, etc. What was I to be nervous about? If I had more sense, maybe I would have been nervous, too.
Best wishes to you!
